I think that's a mistake.  There are non-miracl people there
(including me), but I think I recollect having to ask someone
to sign me up.

I think slack is actually a surprisingly good medium for discussion,
and that's speaking as a veteran IRC user.  Perhaps whoever owns
the slack channel can change its privacy options to open it up?

Same rules apply to what you discuss at Apachecon as to Slack.
That is, if discussion goes anywhere significant concerning
the project, then bring it here!
